Fragment Innovation Contest

Build, Publish, and Win the Ultimate Developer Keyboard!

Join the challenge to create and publish the best, most innovative Liferay Fragment right here at DEVCON.
Showcase your frontend skills, demonstrate the power of Fragments, and make your
creation available to the entire Liferay community on the Marketplace!

The Challenge: Build & Publish the Best Fragment

The goal is simple: Design, develop, and publish a high-quality, reusable Liferay Fragment to the Liferay Marketplace.


The Theme: "The Future of Digital Experience" - create a Fragment that enhances user engagement, streamlines content display, or introduces a compelling, novel UI element.
This can be something you have in your back pocket that you reuse across lots of Liferay projects or this could be a new idea you crafted over some Devcon beers.
